Interface CharTermAttribute

    • Method Detail

      • copyBuffer

        void copyBuffer​(char[] buffer,
                        int offset,
                        int length)
        Copies the contents of buffer, starting at offset for length characters, into the termBuffer array.
        Parameters:
        buffer - the buffer to copy
        offset - the index in the buffer of the first character to copy
        length - the number of characters to copy
      • buffer

        char[] buffer()
        Returns the internal termBuffer character array which you can then directly alter. If the array is too small for your token, use resizeBuffer(int) to increase it. After altering the buffer be sure to call setLength(int) to record the number of valid characters that were placed into the termBuffer.

        NOTE: The returned buffer may be larger than the valid CharSequence.length().

      • resizeBuffer

        char[] resizeBuffer​(int newSize)
        Grows the termBuffer to at least size newSize, preserving the existing content.
        Parameters:
        newSize - minimum size of the new termBuffer
        Returns:
        newly created termBuffer with length >= newSize
      • setLength

        CharTermAttribute setLength​(int length)
        Set number of valid characters (length of the term) in the termBuffer array. Use this to truncate the termBuffer or to synchronize with external manipulation of the termBuffer. Note: to grow the size of the array, use resizeBuffer(int) first.
        Parameters:
        length - the truncated length
      • setEmpty

        CharTermAttribute setEmpty()
        Sets the length of the termBuffer to zero. Use this method before appending contents using the Appendable interface.
      • append

        CharTermAttribute append​(java.lang.CharSequence csq)
        Specified by:
        append in interface java.lang.Appendable
      • append

        CharTermAttribute append​(java.lang.CharSequence csq,
                                 int start,
                                 int end)
        Specified by:
        append in interface java.lang.Appendable
      • append

        CharTermAttribute append​(char c)
        Specified by:
        append in interface java.lang.Appendable
      • append

        CharTermAttribute append​(java.lang.String s)
        Appends the specified String to this character sequence.

        The characters of the String argument are appended, in order, increasing the length of this sequence by the length of the argument. If argument is null, then the four characters "null" are appended.

      • append

        CharTermAttribute append​(java.lang.StringBuilder sb)
        Appends the specified StringBuilder to this character sequence.

        The characters of the StringBuilder argument are appended, in order, increasing the length of this sequence by the length of the argument. If argument is null, then the four characters "null" are appended.

      • append

        CharTermAttribute append​(CharTermAttribute termAtt)
        Appends the contents of the other CharTermAttribute to this character sequence.

        The characters of the CharTermAttribute argument are appended, in order, increasing the length of this sequence by the length of the argument. If argument is null, then the four characters "null" are appended.
